The human brain thinks most of the time even if you are asleep and you wonder why...it is because you are alive! Just like that, simple explanation. Because if your dead, can you think? Can you perceive about everything that is happening within your surrounding especially with yourself?
What if after death, you have 10-15 minutes of your life in out of body experience? Though it can happen it is impossible to prove that phenomena. You can only prove it if somehow you are in astral body projection, left your dead body and your spirit was able to see from a distance what was happening to another group of people who knew you, but doesn't know you are dead in that right moment.
Lazarus was dead for 3 days before Jesus Christ resurrected him, according to what was written in the Holy Bible. Jesus Christ died from the crucifixion, loss of blood from all the nails made of steel nails (although in another story, no amount of metal nails, or screws could be hammered through his palms and toes, or any part of his body, yeah just like Superman). He died and was resurrected. Then year after year in Philippines, volunteers for the penitencia were used for such cenaculo to administer the crucifixion. Nobody dies. They probably lose a litre of blood or they were nailed on parts of their body that were already bored from long time ago. I know sort of magic. At the time of Jesus, and at the time of Moses, there were already too many magicians and that include the high priests and sorcerers of the Pharaohs of Egypt.
On whether the hero Dr. Jose Rizal was executed in Luneta Park for the public to see and view the firing squad just because he had written the subversive novels: Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo is somewhat lame. Then according to Dr. Watson, the genius who discovered the double helix (DNA), no genius or highly intelligent human being killed or put to death simply because they are used for breeding (Re: Independence Day movie, ET was used as experiment). Even Einstein's brain was stolen by his own forensic investigator during autopsy just because he was a collector. Jeffrey Dahmer was a collector of skulls and bones. There are so many crazy humans whose collections are crazier than what you are thinking right now.
Heh! Better collect dinosaur bones and take them to ROYAL TYRRELL MUSEUM in Drumheller, Alberta. If you believe in Adam and Eve, you must also believe there are giant creatures out there that need introspection. If there are giants like Goliath and there are giant seqouia trees maybe, there's really a machine that could shrink any life form and Earth would be greater and larger and there's no need to discover another planet. If you are obsessed like Elon Musk on trying to reach Mars or explore Mars, what red planet can do? Mars is known as the god of war, not just a planet.
By the way, another asteroid would pass along the satellite of Earth, miles away from the surface of earth, the size of a truck (something like Fed Ex truck). When I heard the news, that's quite fascinating and at the same time ridiculous. According to the news it will happen tonight! lol. Pray that the asteroid wont hit the earth's surface and its path should be straight not crook.
